Rust

You, you were the ground onTú, tú eras el suelo

Which Jesus spitEn el que Jesús escupió

And put it gently with his rough handsY lo puso suavemente con sus manos ásperas

On my closed eyelidsEn mis párpados cerrados

You were the saintTú eras el santo

Who showed me graceQue me mostró gracia

I could wash my face in youPodía lavar mi rostro en ti

But also on my faithPero también en mi fe

You were the rustTú eras el óxido

You were the rust, you were the rustTú eras el óxido, tú eras el óxido

On my Scripture you were the dustEn mi Escritura eras el polvo

You were the lossTú eras la pérdida

You were the loss, you were the lossTú eras la pérdida, tú eras la pérdida

That cut my beating heart acrossQue cortó mi corazón latiente

You, you were the crownedTú, tú eras coronado

You were the witTú eras ingenioso

You were the pillar of fire that made the dark night litTú eras la columna de fuego que iluminaba la noche oscura

You were the truthTú eras la verdad

That must be toldQue debe ser contada

My soul is a white shirt but please unbutton it oh, LordMi alma es una camisa blanca pero por favor desabróchala, oh Señor

I was the rust, I was the rustYo era el óxido, yo era el óxido

On the nail (that) hung you on the crossEn el clavo que te colgó en la cruz

You were the lossTú eras la pérdida

You were the loss, you were the lossTú eras la pérdida, tú eras la pérdida

That cut my beating heart acrossQue cortó mi corazón latiente

That cut my beating heart acrossQue cortó mi corazón latiente

You were the lustTú eras la lujuria

For me when life was just a mustPara mí cuando la vida era solo una obligación
